Contactless module

The Contactless module contains a chip and is connected to an antenna to enable communication with a reader using contactless technology. The module is mainly used in cards and passports but can also be applied to other contactless module solutions like chip + antenna (RFID) used in tags, wristbands or even used for live stock tagging. The module is used for identification, authentication or tracking & tracing.

Many other markets benefit from the features of NedCard's package solutions. IoT and M2M communication are emerging fast.
